We all have issues with Clarke, but I also have an issue with the spelling of the country "Columbia"

Unless we have some significant purchases in the next few weeks, I am convinced we will score even fewer goals than last season.

We scored a paltry 31 goals in the league last season. When, as we all expect Benteke leaves, we will have a squad that scored a COMBINED total of 12 goals. That's simply scary.

Add that to fact our midfield has been largely stripped of the limited quality we had last year (in Delph and Cleverley) and there will be even fewer chances made and no one to finish it off.

Unless there are significant ambitious signings, this squad is the worst we've ever had in the last twenty years and we will be relegation favourites.

I know things are looking bad right now, but..........I've got nothing....sorry

Great news With him and Gueye we can build a great midfield. If we can get some of the players we have been linked with we can be much better than last year.

The toilet flushed at BMH today.

Source?

Benteke and Milner in a Plop-shirt.... I don't feel like following English football anymore...

The comments section in that link mentions that he is often injured

Why is Sherwood revealing that Benteke has a release clause? Stupid move to fuel more speculation before the FA- cup final. I'm still very sceptical about Sherwood, but I hope he proves me wrong. A win tomorrow win do much though. I think he was the right man for us in the position we were in this year, but I don't like him talking about things like this to the media before an important match.

Don't worry, agent Barry will help us out

Bradford or Reading please. If we lose the final against liverpool, arsenal or manu we will qualify for europe right?

People who whistle.

Surely they can find other ways to tell everyone that they are happy. I feel people who whistle only pretends to be extremely happy, just to piss people off.

Need a leader in there. Vlaar in for me, Okore's positioning is questionable

Think Gil is wasted out wide tbh.

Agree, he should be playing in Weimans role with Benteke up front and Gabby wide.

Think we need Benteke for this game. Loads of possession and no-one to aim the cross for.

Lambert new 7 year deal!!

Why would Benteke go to Liverpool??? Surely he's got some ambitions.

Okore looking good. Hope we get to see him and Vlaar playing together

Depressing to think that we are underdogs to Southampton and teams like them. All credit to them, but I would take a point right now.....or at least a few shots on goal...

Being a Villa fan must be more painful than giving birth surely..

So painful to watch....

Think we are crying out for some creative wingers. Gabby and Weiman doesnt offer anything. Is Gabby playing in the hole???

Is this Nichlas guy any better than that Bendtner guy who used to play for Arsenal?

Hangeland is way past it. His form at Fulham and for Norway this season has proved that. I would say even Baker and Clark are better than him now

Really nervous now! I will be absolutely furious if the crowd turns on the players and the manager if we go one or two down. As an overseas supporter I would love to be at Villa Park today to give my my support to the team, so I hope that those going see the real importance of supporting the lads today!

For starters, how about Doug Ellis start paying for having a stand named after him?

"Dongou, 18, is a graduate of Barca’s impressive youth system where he has scored goals for fun in recent seasons."

Maybe he just hates fun?
